Upgrade Fees If the hunter wishes to hunt an animal that is not included in the list of allowed species, and if CAWA has quotas left of this species, it may be hunted for an upgrade fee. The upgrade fee is to be paid only if the hunter kills or wounds an animal. Trophy fees always have to be paid on top of the upgrade fees. NB! CAWA cannot guarantee that animals will be available on quota for upgrades. If it is important to the hunter to hunt a certain species, it should be reserved at the time of booking the safari.

  • Impacts of Roads and Hunting on Central African Rainforest Mammals
    Impacts of Roads and Hunting on Central African Rainforest Mammals WILLIAM F. LAURANCE,∗ BARBARA M. CROES,† LANDRY TCHIGNOUMBA,† SALLY A. LAHM,†‡ ALFONSO ALONSO,† MICHELLE E.

Box 37012, Washington, D.C. 20560–0705, U.S.A. ‡Institut de Recherche en Ecologie Tropicale, B.P. 180, Makokou, Gabon Abstract: Road expansion and associated increases in hunting pressure are a rapidly growing threat to African tropical wildlife. In the rainforests of southern Gabon, we compared abundances of larger (>1kg) mammal species at varying distances from forest roads and between hunted and unhunted treatments (com- paring a 130-km2 oil concession that was almost entirely protected from hunting with nearby areas outside the concession that had moderate hunting pressure). At each of 12 study sites that were evenly divided between hunted and unhunted areas, we established standardized 1-km transects at five distances (50, 300, 600, 900, and 1200 m) from an unpaved road, and then repeatedly surveyed mammals during the 2004 dry and wet seasons. Hunting had the greatest impact on duikers (Cephalophus spp.), forest buffalo (Syncerus caffer nanus), and red river hogs (Potamochoerus porcus), which declined in abundance outside the oil concession, and lesser effects on lowland gorillas (Gorilla gorilla gorilla) and carnivores. Roads depressed abundances of duikers, si- tatungas (Tragelaphus spekei gratus), and forest elephants (Loxondonta africana cyclotis), with avoidance of roads being stronger outside than inside the concession.

  • EST. S 1987 Wildlife Systems, Inc
    EST. s 1987 Wildlife Systems, Inc. was founded in 1987 with a primary focus of providing a dual blend of hunting services for sportsmen seeking quality outdoor adventure, as well as providing landowners with wildlife management services, and this enterprise concept remains the same today. WSI has worked across most regions of Texas, several other states, and multiple foreign countries, and the company's ability to provide adaptive services is one of the unique features that have allowed WSI to successfully integrate into various settings, regardless of the region or resources of interest. WSI currently operates hunting programs on approximately 700,000 acres of private land, offering hunting services for a variety of game species, and hosts hunts each year for clients from over 30 states. Wildlife consulting is provided on numerous other properties which are not enrolled under a WSI hunting program. The growth and continued success of WSI is a direct funtion of a support staff who share in similar operational philosophies developed through company training protocols, striving to offer consistent quality service to our hunters and landowners. From office personnel to guides, cooks to field techs, part-time, fulltime, and seasonal, this group of 30-40 staffers represent the heartbeat of WSI. The quality of their work has been featured in many national and regional magazines, several major television networks, and have received various recognitions including being named the 2002 Dodge Outfitter of the Year, from a cast of over 400 different hunting operations in North America. Company founder and owner, Greg Simons, is a respected wildlife biologist who has been active in his professional peer field for many years, serving as an officer in Texas Chapter of The Wildlife Society and Texas Wildlife Associa­ tion.

Date: March 2016 Copyright © 2016 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za iii GENERAL ABSTRACT Fallow deer (Dama dama), although not native to South Africa, are abundant in the country and could contribute to domestic food security and economic stability. Nonetheless, this wild ungulate remains overlooked as a protein source and no information exists on their production potential and meat quality in South Africa. The aim of this study was thus to determine the carcass characteristics, meat- and offal-yields, and the physical- and chemical-meat quality attributes of wild fallow deer harvested in South Africa. Gender was considered as a main effect when determining carcass characteristics and yields, while both gender and muscle were considered as main effects in the determination of physical and chemical meat quality attributes. Live weights, warm carcass weights and cold carcass weights were higher (p < 0.05) in male fallow deer (47.4 kg, 29.6 kg, 29.2 kg, respectively) compared with females (41.9 kg, 25.2 kg, 24.7 kg, respectively), as well as in pregnant females (47.5 kg, 28.7 kg, 28.2 kg, respectively) compared with non- pregnant females (32.5 kg, 19.7 kg, 19.3 kg, respectively).

The park was once known for its abundant density of Swayne’s Hartebeest. We used direct total count methods for the census. We administered semi-structured interviews and open-ended questionnaires with senior scouts who are a member of the local communities. Historical records were obtained to evaluate the population trends of the animals since 1974. The density of the animal decreased from 65 in 1974 to 1 individual per 100 km2 in 2014 with a decline of 98.5% in the past 40 years. The respondents agreed that the conservation status of the park was in its worst condition ever now with only 2 Swayne’s Hartebeest left, with a rapid decline from 4 individuals in 2012 and 12 individuals in 2009. Mainly hunting and habitat loss, but also unsuitable season of reproduction and shortage of forage as minor factors were identified as threats for the local extinction of the Swayne’s Hartebeests.

  • Cephalophus Natalensis – Natal Red Duiker
    Cephalophus natalensis – Natal Red Duiker listed two subspecies, including C. n. natalensis from KwaZulu-Natal (KZN), eastern Mpumalanga and southern Mozambique, and C. n. robertsi Rothschild 1906 from Mozambique and the regions north of the Limpopo River (Skinner & Chimimba 2005). Assessment Rationale This species is restricted to forest patches within northeastern South Africa and Swaziland. They can occur at densities as high as 1 individual / ha. In KZN, there are an estimated 3,046–4,210 individuals in protected areas alone, with the largest subpopulation of 1,666–2,150 Sam Williams individuals occurring in iSimangaliso Wetland Park (2012– 2014 counts; Ezemvelo KZN Wildlife unpubl. data). This Regional Red List status (2016) Near Threatened subpopulation is inferred to have remained stable or B2ab(ii,v)* increased over three generations (2000–2015), as the previous assessment (2004, using count data from 2002) National Red List status (2004) Least Concern estimated subpopulation size as 1,000 animals. While no Reasons for change Non-genuine change: other provincial subpopulation estimates are available, New information they are regularly recorded on camera traps in the Soutpansberg Mountains of Limpopo and the Mariepskop Global Red List status (2016) Least Concern forests of Mpumalanga, including on private lands outside protected areas (S. Williams unpubl. data). TOPS listing (NEMBA) None Reintroductions are probably a successful conservation CITES listing None intervention for this species. For example, reintroduced individuals from the 1980/90s are still present in areas of Endemic No southern KZN and are slowly moving into adjacent *Watch-list Data farmlands (Y. Ehlers-Smith unpubl. data). The estimated area of occupancy, using remaining (2013/14 land cover) Although standing only about 0.45 m high forest patches within the extent of occurrence, is 1,800 (Bowland 1997), the Natal Red Duiker has km2.
